Default Help- Poping Noise - It Can't be good!!

Well every time when I don't brake gentally I hear a POP or a few POP POP's. It also will do it when I am backing out of somewhere when I stop it PoP's.

It sounds like its comming from the Front Right (but I am not 100% positive)

I am now afraid my when is gonna fall off or something, I would like to get some educated guesses on what may be the problem.

Any help is greatly appreciated, just let me know if I can explain something for you to help.

Cheers to all, doucy2

what vehicle? anti-lock brakes? how do the brakes feel when you stop? do you feel confident you will stop? is it at all speeds? it could be that its not braked related at all? could be ball joints, tie-rod end, control rod bushings, control arm bushings.if you cannot troubleshoot it yourself, take it to a shop soon. nothing more scary than hitting the pedal and not stopping or having a ball joint or tie-rod let go at speed. let me know when you figure it out.

lower control arm bushing is my guess.

not critical on safety, but it needs replacement or else it will affect other parts.
